Points forts
Once a part of the Kingdom of Sikkim, in the 19th Century, Gorkhas invaded the region and added it to the Kingdom of Nepal. The Anglo-Gorkha War rebased Darjeeling back to Sikkim. The East India Company in 1835 leased out Darjeeling from the British, making Darjeeling the Summer Capital of Bengal Presidency. Nineteenth Century saw many architectural and engineering achievements, most popular of which being The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway (DHR), The Town Hall. This walk has been designed to give you a deeper insight of the colonial British Architecture, English Cuisine, Nepali and Sikkimese Culture and History.

About Darjeeling
Darjeeling is a hill town in West Bengal, set among tea estates at about 2,000 metres, with a toy railway, monasteries and views of Kangchenjunga.
Darjeeling spreads along a ridge in the Himalayan foothills, with its tea gardens dropping into the valleys below. The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, a narrow-gauge line with small steam locomotives, is a World Heritage site and spirals through the Batasia Loop. The Mall at Chowrasta is the town's open square, and Observatory Hill is hung with prayer flags around a small shrine.
Top-ranked sights in Darjeeling: Japanese Peace Pagoda, Batasia Loop.
